This afternoon a coworker commented that I’m the only person she knows who doesn’t use a phone case.

Old social media posts are stupid. Translation: I went to work and did my job. 🥱🤣

Back to my annual quest to get Joy Division/New Order into the hall of fame. 🎶
That’s essentially every George Cutshaw card.
A few highlights from today's SABR Day held jointly with Milwaukee's Ken Keltner chapter. We had three great presentations. ⚾️
🤣🤣🤣
Is this California? No, it’s Kenosha.
We celebrated another great SABR Day with the Chicago and Milwaukee chapters today. I even (finally) grabbed a Brat Stop t-shirt. Bring on baseball season. ⚾
It’s just a spring training game, but it’s on television this afternoon. ⚾️
🤣🤣🤣
Yes, traditional white golf balls. Oddly enough, the snow only came into play two or three times for our foursome.
I didn’t think we were really going to play when the idea was floated on Thursday. Sure enough, we did.
I never expected to play a round of golf in February, but we managed to play nine this afternoon. 🏌️♂️

What a great night at the Sox game during the SABR convention.
🤣🤣🤣
I’m still in the early stages of researching/writing my SABR bio of George Cutshaw. Thanks to @heavyjstudios.bsky.social I now have this in my Cutshaw collection. ⚾️

Thanks! I’ll admit that the stadium was heavily renovated since 1924. I was bummed that there wasn’t some sort of historical marker on the premises. At least none that were visible on the exterior.
While writing Bud Clancy’s SABR bio (link included), I learned about the 1924 World Tour with the Chicago White Sox and New York Giants. Today I visited the site of the final three games of that series. This is Colombes Stadium (officially known as Stade Yves-du-Manoir). sabr.org/bioproj/pers...

Today marks the 44th anniversary of the Sandberg trade between the Chicago Cubs and the Philadelphia Phillies. Here’s my @ibwaa.bsky.social article from 2022. ibwaa.substack.com/p/revisiting...
Bonus points for Star Wars.

Oh, back in the day when social media was fun.
